Buffalo Springfield is the debut album by the folk rock band Buffalo Springfield, released in October 1966 on Atco Records.[nb 1] Band members Stephen Stills and Neil Young wrote all the material on the album.

Most subsequent pressings of the album from March 1967 onward replaced the track "Baby Don't Scold Me" with the standalone single "For What It's Worth", which was ascending the US charts at the time. The single eventually peaked at number 7 on the Hot 100,[8] while the album reached number 80 on the Billboard Top Pop Albums chart.
